Two More Pirms Porced to the "Wall as a Eesult of the Present Tightness in the Money Market. A Report That the Gould Crowd Have Again Obtained Control of the Union Pacific Railroad Scenes and Incidents of the Day in the Street. New Yoke, Nov. 12J The stock market today showed a materially better feeling both in the street and on the outside, and there was a most gratifying confidence dis played, that not only was the worst now over, but that the improvement would bo quick and sharp. The action of the clear ing house committee, in coming to the re lief of the banks in difficulty, was the means of restoring the confidence of many. "while the improvement in tho situation abroad was also a powerful factor to that end. Not only were the active stocks of the first hour still continued, but a better tone was noticed over all the list. New York, Nov. 12, 2:30 p. m. The critical period of the day in the exchange, the delivery hour, passed without the announcement of any additional failure, and the financial horizon is decidedly clearer. Money is down to 6 per cent and plentiful. THE TOST'S REVIEW. New Your, Nov. 12. The Evening Post, in its financial article, says: "The immediate effect of the decision of the New York clearing house, to issue cer tificates to be used in the settlement of balances, was to allay the apprehensions of a bauk panic, and, in that respect, had a beneficial effect, in helping the recovery from 1 to 3 per cent in the stock market during the first hour of business. But while it relieved these apprehensions, it did not decrease the demand for money, and on the stock exchange the rates were still up i to 1 per cent per day, besides the legal rate of C per cent per annum." GOULD AND THE TOION PACIFIC A Report that the Missouri Pacific Magnate Will be Made President. New York, Nov. 12. The Times has the following: "Jay Gould has got control of the Union Pacific Railway company; at least, that is what he himself says. Interested with him in tho deal which has led to the acquisition of this property, or to the re establishment of his power in it, rather, are, according to his own statement, Will iam and John D. Rockefeller, Mr. Gould said to a visitor yesterday: 'The Union Pacific has come under our control. Jlr. Charles Francis Adams will cease to be president, and I willjprobably take tho presidency myself. Mr. Adams has been managing the property after a fashion which sets business control wholly at naught, and, under his direction, the Union Pacific, more than any other rail much hieher all dav lone, but the inactive specialties, which yesterday could not find road in the west, has disturbed and upset buyers at any price, were taken at con- j harmony, knocked down rates, and forced Btautly advancing figures, and the heavy Rlump in tnese snares was in a great meas ure made up. The liquidation in the Til lards is now believed to have marked the culmination of the efforts to force a com plete liquidation in the street, as those Mocks had resisted the force applied for a the handling of business without profit mat sort or tiling lias gone so far that im portant interests in the company, includ ing Sidney Dillon, Frederick Ames, and other prominent stockholders, have de termined that his administration must end.

There is to bo expected us to assume the control, direction and cr nsiderablo selling of Northern Pacific management of the property, and we have reeuritics iinu sumu utneiH iu 1141uu.1iu accepted loans, as was witnessed todny; but tho market now shows no pressure of other stocks, and the offerings of the past few days have undoubtedly been taken by strong parties. Tho foreigners were heavy buyers all day long, and the transactions for foreign accounts were so largo that the suspicion that the late sales for London were for the short account was openly expressed. The loaning rates for stocks have been very high, and the inquiry has been very urgent, which would go to give color to the suspicion. Money was still tight at the exchange, and a premium of was exacted for u&o over tho day, while it was believed that the banks were loaning to their customers on satisfactory collaterals at rates even lower than the legal figure. The buying was throughout most confident in charac ter and reflected an easier feeling both in money nnd as to the general situation. The report that Mr. Gould had acquired control of tho Union Pacific again was used for all it was worth. Tho stock showed no response to tho story, and today was only fairly active, and moved over a comparatively narrow range. The market "Mr. Gould added that what he had in view was a new association for the west ern railroads, including those of the South west and Northwest, which would be much more effective than had been any other association ever in the field. Rates would not be put up one day, to be cut down tho next. He intimated that his old idea of a railway clearing house (practi cally a railway trust) would now be put in operation. "Mr. Gould spent much of yesterday in Wall street in consultation with oflicers of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railway He declares that the Missouri PacLic and Atchison systems have reached an agree ment, which is satisfactory to both, and which will create lasting peace to South western territory. There are indications that one of his sons may become an Atchi son director, and a member of the firm of Kidder, Peabody Co. may come in in a like relation in the Missouri Pacific direc tory." GOULD'S DENTAL. Mr. Gould was besieged by reporters in regard to the report in a morning paper on tne union x'acmc aeai. lie was re- maintaining good rates on its traffic, and will probably continue to be operated with conservatism in its traffic affairs." Mr. Geo. C. Magoun, chairman of the Atchison board, replied to an inquiry as follows: "All southwestern lines have agreed to strengthen rates, and efforts are being made to join all lines west of Chi cago and St. Louis, including southwest ern, northwestern and all transcontinental lines, upon a like basis, namely, a small general committee, to control rates and to introduce the many economies exDected to result from joint or common a'gents at competitive points. No interchange of directors has been suggested or contem plated." A special from York says that Mr. Gould was asked this morning whether he was securing control of the Union Pacific. He replied that he was not giving away his own business. He further said: "I am not buying anything I can't pay for." THE TRANSFER OF FUNDS. Washixgtox, Nov. 12. The secretary of the treasury today authorized the assist ant secretary of the treasury, at San Fran cisco, to receive denodts of fnnds from bankers desiring to transfer the same by telegraph to the assistant treasurer at New York. This is done to enable persons in New York having funds in San Fran cisco, that are needed there, to transfer them for immediate use in New York. The department will also accord this privilege to other points at which there are sub treasuries, should it act as a means of af fording any relief at the present time. NEW PENSIONS.

The bauk is a member of tho clearing h use. It operates under a state charter, granted in 1842. It is one of the banks ul ich had to be helped out by tho clear inghouse yesterday. The bank applied ngiin today to tho clearing house for a loan, and a committee was on the way to c inline into the condition of the institu te m. when it was learned that it was in tli hands of the bauk examiner. The lnnk officials expected to open up for business tomorrow morning at 10 0 1 loc k.

THE HAT IX THE STREET. -Mw iokk, aov. iu. wnon the gong v ..s sounded for the opening of business t" morning on the stock exchange, there w..s a yell aud a rush, aud pandemonium r giK-1 on the floor. The galleries were irowtdd to their utmost capacity, and bv a c'iss which only visit the street in tin'ies t f t,rcat excitement. Richlv attired Indies pnsi ied forward for a sight of thestrug g mg brokers, and the most casual ob nrwr would have seen that it was a time cT uuwoutwl excitement. The market evened strouger than might have beeu ex j n. t id, aud tuere was evidently a hopeful vi w of the situation, despite the fact that tho early Loudon advices wore not of a vc ry favorable character. New York, Nov. is, 10:50 a. m. The sock market opened excited, but higher fe r the general list. Interest seemed to he centered in the Villards, and, ou tremend cus sales, the Northern Pacific and North American have advanced about two points over last night's closing figures. 2s tw York, Nov. 12, noon. Money Is Lsht at per cent per day and legal inter Tho stock market developed new strength after 11 o'clock, and while money was loaning at and legal interest, prices rose materially. The extreme fevenshness in the afternoon and Mr. Gould denied that he had had an interview such as was published. "Have you or your associates made purchases which give you the control of the Union Pacific?" was asked. "I have nothing to say about my private business transactions," Mr. Gould replied. "All that I ever said on this subject to any body was that that stock I purchased I paid for." "Will you exert an influence upon the Union Pacific management, or in anyway, directly or indirectly, effect a change at tho next election?" Mr. Gould smiled and hesitated before his reply. "I am acquainted with some of the largest .stockholders in the company." he said. "I might have some influence, if I chose to exert it. There is great dissatis faction over the conduct of many of the railroads. Tiiero is an uprising which ought to effect great reforms in the man agements, for the roads have enough busi ness to give them large profits, if they can obtain proper rates. In the southwest we have made progress toward perfecting an arrangement which will establish sta ble rates. There has been no conference today, that I know of, on the subject. The progress as made today is probably the re sult of previous conferences. Stockholders are aroused and indignant over the result of the warring in rates. The best way to express the si. uation might bo to say that if the railroad elections were to take place now the results might be as surprising as were tne recent political elections. Mr. Rockefeller, whose nnme was con nected with the interview, said: "So far as I am concerned, there is uothing to the storv. I have not seen Mr. Gould, nnd I have no iuterest m the Union Pacific, I will not sneak for my brother, but I don't believe that he has had anything to do wltn the deal." Much was made in Wall street over what was said to bo the evasion of the di rect issue as to tho Union Pacific control when questions were asked of Mr. Gould A similar view was taken by the bulls of the Boston dispatch, wfiich quoted President Charles Francis Adams as fol lows: "I am absolutely ignorant of the alleged facts in Mr. Gould's alleged inter view, and greatly question whether Mr. Gould made any such remarks. The Union Pacific is not negotiating with any railroad; is at iieace with all tho world, u maintaining rates on its traffic, and vi!l eont inue to bo operated with conservatism in its traffic affairs." Union Pacific di rectors were also quoted as denying the story, aud houses in Wall street with ex cellent Boston connections ridicule the idea that Mr. Gould had obtained posses sion of the Union Pacific THE TOST OX THE STORV. New York, Nov. 12. The Evening Post says: "The stories about the Union Pacific passing into the control of Mr. Gould, and the report in a morning paper that he was to become the presideut in place of Mr. Adams, who was reported as atout to re tire, not only lacks confirmation, but we have the most positive and unquestionable proof that tle whole story published in a morning paper, with all the details of an interview, was merely an invention. Nevertheless, we have also good reason for oeiievmg mm .i iimjuniy oi eoe ock holders of the Union Pacific are dissatisfied with the present management, and that a move will .sometime soon be made to break up the contract with the North western, that tha Union Pacific may be free to enter into a new combination, which shall embrace all the roads west of Chicago, somewhat on the plan of Mr Al dace Walker, or, if not that, upon a basis similar to the so-called presidents' agree ment, only so that it be made more bind ing." THE XEWS IX BOSTOX. BOSTOX, Nov. 12. President Adams, of the Union Pacific railroad, said this morn ing, in an interview with au Associated Press reporter: "1 am absolutely ignorant of the alleged facts in Mr. Gould's interview, and I great ly question whether Mr. Gould ever made iuu rcmarivs uiinuuieu to ujiii. i uc l. uion AUSTRALIAN SILVER. Washixgtox, Nov. 12. In a report to the state department ou Australian silver, Consul Griggin of Sydney says that the advance in the price of silver since the passage of the silver bill by the United btates congress has already made a differ ence in the annual value of that pro'uet in New South Wales alone of more than $1,940,600. Mr. Griggin says that in tnree days the price advanced from S3 to 91 cents per ounce, and it is now quoted at $1.10 j per ounce. xms auvauce, ne says, is likely to have a marked influ ence upon the trade relations between Australia and the eastern countries, and it may result in the establishment of a direct exchauge between these colonics and China and Japan. The minister for mines of Victoria reports that none of the Victorian silver lodes yet discovered are regarded as of sufficient value to justify amount ot The mines says, have en these have not led to the opening up of a paying lode.

The British warship Serpent, was lost at a point twenty miles north of Cape Finisterre. Out of a total of 250 sou s on board, only three were saved. The Serpent went on the rocks during a storm on Monday night. A heavy mist prevailed at the time of the disaster. Owing to the violence of the storm, it was impossible to send assistance from the shore. Tremendous seas swept the deck of the doomed vessel, carrying away group after group of the unfortunate men on board. Tiie news of the wreck was con veyed to Coruuna, a distance of sixty miles, over mountain roads. The Serpent's com plement was 170 officers and men. The others on board were going out to relieve men now on shins on the African station. Madrid, Nov. 12. An official telegram from Corunna says that the Serpent was wrecked off Cape Huoy, near the village of Camarinas. There were 276 persons aboard, of whom only three were saved. The bodies of three ladies have been washed ashore. The governor has ordered the authorities at Camarinas to render every assistance in their power. The three persons saved from the Ser pent are sailors, who swam ashore at Camarinas. They express the belief that all the others on board were drowned; only four bodies have been washed ashore as yet. There is no telegraph station at Camarinas. THE XEWS IX EXGLAXD. AMERICAN PORK. Washixgtox, Nov. 12. The secretary of agriculture is in receipt through the'de partment of state, of a copy of a commu nication from the Hon. Clark Carr, United Suites minister resident at Copenhagen, to tho secretary of state, in which Mr. Carr states that a petition was recently presented to the Danish government by leading importers in Copenhagen asking for the removal of the restrictions now ex isting in that country against American pork products. This petition, he savs. was taken up by the chamber of com merce at Copenhagen, which adopted a resolution asking that American pork be admitted as soon as Germany should make the same concession. The opinion is generally entertained in Denmark that In the near future American pork will be admitted to all countries of Europe, but the Danes hesitate about removing their restriction until Germany doe so, for fear Germany would then exclude Danish pork from the empire. THE BRAZILIAN SQUADRON. Washixgtox, Nov. 12. A Brazilian squadron, consisting of the armored crui.-er Aquidau and the cruiser Guana lmra. under command of Rear Admiral Balthazar Dasilviera, is expected to arrive nt 2s ew York between Nov. 15 and 25. The squadron comes to this country for the LOXDOX, Nov. 12. The duke of Edin burgh was attending a Patti concert at Plymouth, when the news of the disaster reached that town. He was immediately informed of the calamity, and at once left the concert hall and hastened to the various newspaper offices in search of further details. After reading all the dis patches that had been received concerning the disaster, he went directly home with out returning to the concert halL He ex- Eressed the utmost sorrow at the fate that ad overtaken so many brave men. The newspaper offices at Plymouth were besieged by crowds of people anxious to hear further news of the disaster. Among those were the sobbing wives and daughters of many of the lost seamen. It is stated that many of the crew of the Serpent, before the vessel started on what proves to be her last voyage, expressed the fear that some misfortune would befall the ship. The admirality has telegraphed to the British consul at Cortinna, asking for details of the disaster. g&e queou has scab it biuiuui message bu tuc uuh.c ui. .Ed inburgh. The Serpent was built after the ideas of Admiral Cooper Kay, who insisted upon an immense horse power which, according to previous notions, was out of all propor tion to her ilisplacemeut. She could main tain a speed of seventeen knots an hour. Lord Brassy, in his naval annual, adverse ly criticises the vessel. He said the econ omy had been carried to excess in the con struct on of the ship: that her plating was too thin, and that her armament was over done. In a sea way, he said, her heavy top weight would be a detriment to her speed, and would unduly strain the hull. The relatives of the crew of the Serpent, at Plymouth, aud the dock yards people. arc full of gossip about the lost cruiser. It is claimed that she was unaea worthy, and that she broke down on all her trial trips. Commander Ross is said to have been in the habit of treating his men with undue severity. The Serpent started last Satur day on her maiden voyage. She was com missioned for service in Africa last June, but was detained by several mishaps to her machinery. She and her consorts were cordially disliked by the service. The Ser pent had a bad record. She broke down more than once in the maneuvers of 18SS. Several admirals condemned the whole class. president of that republic had been driven from the city, but is now collecting a force of troops, and is expected, says the min ister, to make a fight for the recapture of the government. FUNDS FOR BOOTH. LOXDOX, Nov. 12. Mr. Bancroft, the re tired actor and theatrical manager, has offered to donate 1.000 if ninety-nine oth ers will subscribe a like sum for the pur pose of providing Gen. Booth, the leader of the Salvation Army, with the money necessary to make a trial of his scheme for the improvement of the condition of the lower classes as set forth in the book, "In Darkest England." METHODIST MISSION FUNDS. Bostox, Nov. 12. The seventy-second annual meeting of the general missionary committee of the missionary society of the Methodist Episcopal church was convened in the Bromneld street church, in this city. today. The meeting was called to order at 10 a. m., by Bishop Bowman of St. Louis. An organization was perfected, with the choice of Rev. S. L. Baldwin of New York, as recording secretary, and Rev.

Corresponding Secretary McNeabe moved that the appropriations for the work, ex clusive of incidentals, contingent expenses and deat, be fixed nt $1,025,000. Treasurer Hunt moved to make the amount $1,132,- 000. Bishop Fitzgerald of Minneapolis, moved, as an amendment, that the amount be increased by adding the $69,000 dobt. The nmendment prevailed, and Treasurer Hunt's motion was adopted. This leaves the amount at $1,200,000 in round numbers. This includes $68,000 for departments, $25,000 for contingent expenses; $25,000 for office expenses: $6,000 for the Dalles claim. and $10,000 for publication. This leaves $1,026,000 for the work. SAM WOOD'S DEFEAT. HUGOTOX, Kan., Nov. 9. Special. The greatest victory for the people of Stevens county is the defeat of Sam Wood for county attorney, by the Hon. Wm. O'Con nor. Wood and his followers have trav ailed, day and night, for nearly a month to elect him, and after all, he was beaten by ten votes, in the county. Had O'Connor and his friends worked as hard, he would have carried the county by at least seventy-five majority. Mr. O Connor was re cently appointed county nttorney by Judge Botkin, to fill a vacancy caused by the resignation of J. L. Pancoast, and has filled the office so acceptably to his con stituents that even his enemies admitted his qualifications and fitness for the office. Always conducting himself with credit and discharging his duties without fear or favor, he .has fairly won the praise ofalL Had Wood been elected, as all your readers well know, endless trouble would have re sulted. Now, on the other hand, these people can rest in peace and quietude for the next two years, or as long as our pres ent county nttorney fills this position. Harmouy will be supreme, and tho county will once more join the procession as one among the most prosperous counties of Kansas. Your correspondent predicts that Mr. O'Connor will make one of the most Sopular county officers that any county in lansas ever had, and will prosecute all offenders without fear or favor. LIVE HOG RATES. Chicago, Nov. 12. Practically the only matter before the Western Freight asso ciation today was the noticeof the Chicago and Alton of its intention to put into effect on November 25, a rate of eighteen cents per 100 pounds on live hogs from Kansas City to Chicago, and of twelve cents to East St. Lonis. This notice re ceived an adverse vote. The Chicago and Alton, however, filed a ten days no ice, under the rules, that the rates would be established notwithstanding. Subsequent ly it was arranged that a meeting of rate clerks of the interested lines should be held at once to check up the rates to Chicago and the Mississippi river on the basis of the Alton's notice, the rates thus determined to be submitted to an adjourn ed meeting of the association on Tuesday next, nt which time it Ls proposed to decide definitely just what re-adjustment of rates from other Missouri river points, and from v, iii ..i..- ...j.u the Alton's notice.

A FIGHT FOR A WIFE Chicago. Nov. 12. William J. Miller and his housekeepor, Mrs. Alice Pallo, were to have been married tonight but were prevented after an extraordinary three-corned fight, in which tho third party was the divorced husband of the would-be bride. Miller is a painter and recently broke his leg in a fall from a ladder. Today while he was in bed nurs ing the damaged limb and conversing with Mrs. Pallo about the wedding, the former husband of the housekeeper sud denly broke into the room. With a yell of rage, Pallo grabbed Miller by the broken leg and jerked him from the bed, rebreaking the healing fracture. A hen vy hammer, used by slaters, was ou the floor and Pallo seized it aud dealt Mil ler a blow. Frantic with pain, Miller at tempted to defend himself and the woman ioined in the melee. She got hold of the hammer and commenced using it on Pallo. Blows were showered on his head and body, nnd the blood from the wounds cov ered the clothing of the three and spatter ed over tho furniture. For almost an hour the struggle continued, nntil the police, who had been told of the affair by some children, entered the room and faund the three grapling and still striving for su premacy.

TURF NOTES. ffovr the Hard TVooiI I Prepared for Market Tho Ill's Tree Are Scattered Through rvrcta of Underbrush and Vines Something; About the Men. An interesting story about mahogany cutting and rafting has reached the state department from Consul Burchnrd. Be lize, the capital of the British possessions in Central America, now a city of consid erable commercial importance, owes its origin and wealth to the mahogany cutters. During the first half of the pres-. ent century princely fortunes were quickly accumulated in the business, especially by those who had the good fortune to secure contracts from the English government for the mahogany, which was formerly largely employed in naal architecture. Since iron and steel have taken the place of wood in the construction of public ves sels the mahogany tn.de has decreased to a notable extent, although it is still large and profitable. The expense and difficulty of getting out the wood are much greater. Few trees can now be found near a water to float the logs. Having selected and secured a suitable locality and ar ranged with one of the exporting houses of Belize to advance the means in provi Mons and cash to carry on the work, the mahogany cutter hires his gang of laborers for the season. Nearly all labor contracts nre made during the Christmas holidays, i at a cost of 120,000,000. RAILWAY BRIEFS. It is estimated that tho number of pas sengers carried by all tho railroads in the world averages 0,500,000 a day. There are seven passenger conductors on the Old Colony road who have each, been in the service thirty-two years. The rails on railroads in the United States, laid in a continuous, line, would make twelve girdles for the earth's circum ference. Tho nrooosed Ottawa and Morrisbnrg railway will shorten the distance by rail I between 2s ew lork and Ottawa aoouc sixty miles. During the last ten years the south has built nearly 20,000 miles of new railroad, an increase of about 100 percent, over 1880, the total mileage for titut section at pres ent being over 40,000. Tho late Richard M. Allen, of Cleveland, O., was the inventor of the paper car wheel and president of the company which manu factured them. He made a colossal for tune out of his invention. The New York, New Haven and Hart ford railroad must pay penalties amount ing to $7,000 for violating the law prohibit ing the running of cars in New York state heated by anything but steam.

In his three years on tho turf Salvator has won for his owner $114,0S5, divided as follows: 2 years old, $14,803; 3 years old, $Cf,30; 4 years old, 30,200. A new racing association, incorporated by a number of horse breeders and owners, has secured a tract of land near Cincin nati, and will build a new full mile track. Tho capital stock will be $250,000. Marcus Daly, tho coffee king, has bought tho 2-year-old bay lilly Lady Wil ton, with a record of 2:25. She recently hold for $10,000, and Daly is reputed to have paid an advance on that figure. The stakes to bo bo run for at tho Vic toria Racing club of Melbourne, Australia, for tho season of lSPO-Dl amount to over $3,000,000, with over $2,000,000 added.

Bryant wrote "ThHnsto,'si6" in the shade of hu old forest. C'owpsr wrote "John Gilpin's Rido" when lw wa under ono of tnoc terrible hts of depression to common to him. Klla Wheeler Wilcox composed her little poem. "Tit Land of Nod," while rocking her baby brother to sleep in tho cradle. Gen. Lytle wrote "I am living, Egvpt, Dying," on the night before hie death. He had a premonition that ho was going to die the next day. Tho poem, "The Falls of Niagara," was aritton by its author. J. G. C. Brainsrd, the editor of a small paper in Connecticut, tinder pressure, in response to a call for "more copy." "After the Ball," tho little poem which has made the name of Nora Perry known In the world of letters, was jotted down on the back of au old letter, with no idea of the popularity it was to receive in the pases of a noted magazine. Poe first thought of "Tho Bells" when walking; the Pt reels of Baltirnoro on a win ter's night. IIu rang the bell of a lawyer's house a stranger to him walked into the gentlemau's library, shnt himself up, and tho next morning presented the lawyer with a copy of his celebrated poem. Thomas Moore, while writing "Lalla Rookh," spent so many months in rend iug up Greek and Persian work that he liecame an accomplished Oriental scholar, and people found it diflicuit to believe that its sconos were not peuncd on the spot instead of in a ntttr dx-ntling in Devonshire. as the gangs from the mahogany works all congregate in Belize at that time. The men are hired for a year at wages ranging from 12 to $20 per month. IN THE woods. All work in mahogany cutting is done by tasks. The best laborers nre out at daybreak and generally finish their task before 11 o'clock. The rest of the day can be spent in fishing, hunting, collecting In dia rubber and sarsaparilla, or in working up mnhogany into dories, paddles and bowls, for all of which they find a ready market. Game and fish are abundant. Tho regular ration for a laborer in this country consists of four pounds of salt pork and seven quarts of Hour per week, which is delivered to him every Sunday morning. The abundance of game and wild fruits enable the mahogany laborer to save a large part of his rations, which he either sells to his eiu)loyer or bends home to his family. Tho owner or overseer of mahogany works is a distinguished personage within the district of his operations. He lives well, often luxuriously, and has many and varied sources of enjoyment. His rustic dwelling in the forest is supplied with every comfort and many luxuries. He travels up and down tho river in a bateau made of mahogany and fitted up regard less of expense for enjoyment and con venience, Tho mahogany tree hunter is the most inrportaut nud best paid laborer in tho service. Upon his skill and activity largely depends tho success of tho season. Ma hogany trees do not grow in clumps or clusters, but are scattered promiscuously through the forests and hidden in n dense growth of underbrush, vines and creepers. It requires a skillful and experienced woodsman to find them. HUriKG THE TREES. No one can make any progress in a trop ical forest without tho aid of a machete or heavy brush knife, llo has to cut his way step by step. Tho mahogany is one of the largest and tallest of trees. Tho hunter seeks the highest ground, climbs to the top of the highest tree, and surveys tho surrounding country. His practiced eyes detect the mahogany by its peculiar foliage; he couuts the trees within the &copc of his vision, notes diiections aud distances, then de scends and cuts a narrow trail to each tree, which he carefully blazes and marks, especially if there is n rival hunter in that vicinity. The axmen follow the hunter, and after them g-o the sawyers and hewers. To fell r. largo mahogany tree is one day's task for two men. On account of tho wide spurs which project from the trunk at its base, scaffolds have to be erect ed aud the tree cut off abovo the spurs, which leaves a stump from teu to fifteen feet high, a waste of the very best wood. While the work of felling and hewing is in progress othrr gangs are employed in making roails and bridges over which the logs are to be hauled to tho river. Tho trucks employed are clumsy and antiquated contrivances which no Ameri can would think of tiding. Tmj axles and boxes are imported from England, aud the other parts or the truck made on the ground. Tho wheels are of solid wood, made by sawing off tho end of a log and fitting iron boxo in the center. No tire or spokes are needed. New wheels aro iu constant requisition, and repairs cause frequent and expensive delays. Most of the trucking is done at night by torchlights made of pitch pine. The oxen aro fed on tho leaves and twigs of the breadnut tree, which gives thorn more strength and power of endurauce than any other obtainable food. GETTING LOUS TO MAItXET. The trucking is done in the dry season, and tha logs collected on the bank of the river and made ready for the Hoods which occur on tho longest rivers in Juno and July, and on all iu October and November. The logs nre turned adrift loose aud caught below near tidewater by booms. Iudians and Caribs follow the logs down the river in jutpans to release those which are caught by fallen trees or other obstacles in tho river. No little judgment and experi ence is required to determine at what ex act stage of the flood the logs should be let loose. Should the water rise at what they call "topgallant Jlood" before the logs reach the boom many of them would be carried over the banks and left high and dry in cauebrakes aud thickets or covered up by sand and rubbish. From the boom tho logs are rafted to the embarcadero and "manufactured" for shipping. Tho manufacturing process consists in sawing off the loc omls which have been bruised and splintered by rocks in tho transit down the river aud in relining aud rehowing the Iocs by skillful workmen, who give them a smooth and even surface The logs are then measured, rolled back into the water at the mouth of the river, and made into rafts to be taken to the ves sel, which is anchored outside of the bar. This is a laborious and risky operation, often resulting in serious losses to the ship per or tho owners of the vessel, according to the conditions of the bill of lading. Ir responsible natives construct aud conduct tho rafts to the vessel, and it frequently happens, e-pecialiy in bad weather and by grow carelessness, that logs break away from tho rafts and are carried away out to sea, to be deposited 11 u illy on the shores of islands or the mainland, where they are eagerly appropriated by the natives and utilized for shipbuilding, furniture and so on.

While military uifii arc insisting that the red coat of the British soldier and the red trousers of the French soldier are dan gerous, becauso their colors render them peculiarly liable to be hit, no 0110 seems to liavo noticed that black is the most deadly of colors, while white is the safest. This has been shown over and over again in the fights which occasionally take place in the southern states between black and white citizens. At one of these lights, which took place in Atlanta, four blacks were killed and eight wounded, while only two white men were hit, and neither of the two was killed. This shows that a black man is six times as liable to be hit by bullets as is a white man. So, too, in conflicts btween red men and white men tho former are hit about twice as often as the latter. It is hence evident that soldiers should be dressed exclusively in white, and that tho Austrians made a mistake in abandoning their famous white coats. Paris Herald. Conducive to Blindness.

Covering First Made of Bark Beginning of the Tetticoat, the Corset, the Stock ings and Other Apparel Bibbons First Ufeed by Barbarians. "To trace the development from their primitive origin of women's garments as they are worn today is very easy," said Professor Mason at the National museum. 'You can see the original of the petticoat even now among savage peoples all over .he world in the shape of the universal waist cincture, with pendent drapery of bark or what not. "The most beautiful illustration of this is to be found at present among the Indians f the northwest coast. The female among those tribes ties a cord around her waist and hangs therefrom innumerable strings of shells, beads, pine nuts and all sorts of things that are pretty and make a jingle. So sacred are these ornamental girdles considered that when the girls join the white schools and are obliged to adopt civ ilized clothing it is very usual for them to wear the garments under their skirts be hind, doubled up. Many authorities aver that this is actually the source from which the notion of the bustle was derived. "The cincture I have described reaches only from the waist to the middle of the thigh. As to the upper part of the body the Indian maiden of the northwest wears nothing for a covering, except in cold weather, when she puts on the tanned skin of some beast, simply tying it over the windward shoulder and under the other arm with strings. Thus you have an ad mirable example of the most primitive fe male costume. The next step in the de velopment of the upper garment is made by cutting holes through tho skin to ac commodate the arms, and in this shape you find the primitive and earliest form of jacket. AMOXG THE POLYNESIANS. "Take a big jump over to the islands of tho Pacific and you find the savages mak ing clothing for themselves out of mul berry bark, which they beat with mallets and wash until all the soft part of its sub stance has been taken out of it, leaving tho textile portion, which serves in that shape for a soft and strong cloth. A piece of any sizo can be made by hammering the edges of many pieces together until they unite so perfectly that it is difficult to find where they join. "It is believed that the largest piece of this mulberry cloth in the world is at present in the National museum; it is six feet long by twenty feet wide. Among the rich islanders it is the custom for a woman to wrap as much as thirty or forty yards of the stuff around the body, below the breasts, which are left exposed. The simple lengthening of the primitive waist garment makes the petticoat as we find it today. "As for the jacket, its most primitive form was that of a skin tied over the shoul ders. Next the skin became a blanket, and soon a hole for the head was cut through the middle of the blanket, as in tho Mexican cloak called the 'poncho.' You will find the Arabs even now employ ing the same device, with ike addition of holes for the arms. By tho timo you have got this far the jacket is pretty nearly com plete. All it needs to become entire are sleeves and cutting to the figure. OP.IGIN OF COP.SETS. "Corsets have always been worn in one shape or another by people who were at all civilized, the necessity for some support for the bust being obviously the occasion for them, and not fashion, to begin with. Women of ancient Greece and Rome wore a cloth bandage wrapped about the body, more or less tightly, beneath tho bosom for the purpose. In the timo of Queen Elizabeth the corset, as you are doubtless aware, was a far more formidable thing than it is now, in stiffness and size almost like a piece of armor. Nowadays women wear corsets because they inako their fig ures shapely, and that reason is sufficient to constitute a certainty that they will go on doing so for an indefinite time. "As for stockings, you know yourself they are of the most modern invention, as may be judged from the fact that Queen Elizabeth was censured for her extrava gance in procuring a few pairs of silk stock ings for her own use. To discover the ori gin of the stocking you have only to con sider the fact that the people in early times, finding the simple sandal not very comfortable, wore it as a solo for a soft foot covering separate from it, which was the first attempt at luxury in footwear. You can see that it was only necessary to stitch the sandal to the soft shoe in order to make what was to all intents and pur poses the shoe of the present day. But the men of those early times found it con venient to wear for hunting purposes leg gings to protect their limbs from the thorns and burrs. Hence have been devel oped what we know as breeches or trousers. Recently there has reached the museum a pair of ancient leggings of the sort de scribed attached by sewing to the soft undersoles. Here you have what is doubt less the original form of stocking. NATURAL HISTOBT OF RIBBONS. "Nothing is more closely identified with women's dress today than ribbons. What, then, is the origin of ribbons? You can discover it very simply by looking at the long fringe of strips into which the primi tive savage cuts the deer hide or other skins that forms his garment or his to bacco pouch or whatever else of his orna mental possessions you please. Why does tbe savage go to the trouble of cutting the beast's hide into such strips? It is because the eye is pleased with waving curves. "When savage fashions merged into civil lized fashions this idea was retained, and so at present we find weavers and makers of stuffs manufacturing their fabrics into what we call ribbons. They are adopted peculiarly by women ra this age, when the masculine sx eschews ornanyint in civil ized life almost wholly. "The hat, in its origin, is a thine purely ornamental. Except in arctic climes, where as much as possible of the body must be covered to keep out the cold, sav ages have never thought of protecting the head. With us it is a matter purely of cul tivationthe necessity for a head covering growing out of the habit of employing it. The beginning of the hat was what yon find it among savage peoples today a tuft of feathers, a bunch of porcupine quiUs or what not Washington Star. Zxpecrlns Too ffnch. Mistress Sates alive!

A very worthy old lady, who had spent all br Hfa on a farm in the Western Reserve, visited the state fair for tho first time last year. Her son took her around and the adndred the nights. "Presently they came to a tent on which was placarded uu inratton to the public to enter and behold a most wonderful bird 'tho Melanerpei Erfi1irocephalus' for tbe small price of ten cents. The old lady persuaded her son to take her in. Shu found nn old friend in the small bird with in a big cage.

I have heard what people would call far better singing since then, but none that ho thoioughly touched me. She never got $500 per night for sing ing two or three songs at tho Academy, with two or three encores grudgingly thrown in, but without pay she sometimes sang all night and rtnio out whenever en cored, though flbo hnd only two little earn for an audience.

She was shipped to Cunada in 1840, being only a yearling. Tha voyag had a bad efiYct upon her, and the im porter sold the stunted colt to a farmer, who kept her until she was 3 year old, when she began to grow.

Tho exact amount of flesh Grover Cleveland lost when he heard of Plumb as a presidential iiossibility in '92 is not recorded.

"Wo like to hear a rooster crow, but not at such an unseemly hour of the night in the center of a cyclone swept district where graves are yawning and the air is filled with the ragged, flitting skirts of the spooks of lost opportunities. SUNFLOWER SHIMMER. LET US FIGURE A LITTLE. The Leavenworth Times has at last mustered up the courage to say what tho Eagle lias bcon saying for a year, and that is that tho self-constituted bosses of tho Republican party in Kansas must come down, abdicate simmer. Never has the world manifested deeper interest in the details of a civil event than it has in the developments of Stan ley's expeditions, but it will bo right glnd whon that rear guard episode is finally doeposed of. It is very tiresome. It is predicted by the Atchison Cham pion that "tho Kansas legislature, hav ing juiisdiction over it-s own members, will, since the Alliance is bo largely in tho majority, seatGon. Rico and scvoral Alliance candidates who will come before thorn in contestod cases." Probably. It is given out from "Washington, by whom it is not stated, that there is to bo no back down on the McKinley law. It sounds unreasonable if not silly, in view of tho recent expression of popular sen timent on that subject. But some peo ple never know when they havo enough. The hobby-bosses at Ttpeka have an nounced that Resubmission was com pletely fcnowed under in the late elec tion. Let's see. "Was it in the vote of Kellogg and Ives? Ives seems to have been elected by unnumbered thousands of majority. "Was it in the re-election of Humphrey? Humphrey has about 114, 000 votes, "Willits about 107,000 votes and Robinson about 07,000 votes. All the Democrats who voted for AVillits are solid for resubmission, as are a greater or less per cent, of the Republicans who voted for him. They were simply Al liance to the exclusion of every other party and every other question. The en tiro vote of Rohiiisnn iv.'is lindnm.ihlv for Resubmission. Mr. Robinson's vote added to only fifty per cent, of the "Wil lit's vote more than ballances Humph rey's vole, while Humphrey received tho voto of many a Republican Resit bin is sionist who didn't like the idea of taking any chances of turning the state over to a Democratic executive. Take the Rob inson voto and the Democratic vote that AVillits received alone, and Humphrey's voto is equalled. In other words tho Republican party might give up the Al.ianco or tho Resubmission-Republi-cans who went off with Robinson, but nobody outside of the Central committee and tho Capital, would be foolish enough to intimate that tho party could give up both of these contingents and win. A prominent Republican in th east pays that tho election settled two things definitely; that Benjamin Harrison will not bo tho next candidate of the Repub lican party, aud that Grover Cloveland will not be tho next nominee of the Democratic party. Ho is half right, for bure. "We see it stated that Polk, the nation al head of tho Alliance, is to come to Kansas to help olect somebody to tho United States sonato to succeed Mr. Ingalls. If ho does ho will prove liim bolf a bigger fool than wo havo supposed him to be. It will also show that ho thinks tho farmers of Kansas greater ignoramuses than ho will find them if ho should undertake tho service. Tho order of Judgo Pratt of Now York forcing tho great Sugar Trust into liquidation and final dissolution, through tho hands of receivers, and restraining any of tho trust's members from re organizing tho combine, is the first decisive offect of tho anti-trust law rccontly enacted by congress. Thero will bo no difficulty in enforcing tho law, in letter and spirit, since it is sus tained by unanimous public sentiment. Tho Farmers' Alliance made a heavy draught upon the Democrats as well ai the Ropubhunns. The total voto polled by tho Democrats and Hcsubmissiomsts com bined was only 70,000. In 18S0 tlioy polled 115,000, and m lSbS 103.000, indicating that Democracy is on the wane in Kutisus. Louvouworth Sun. May it not bo thnt they throw away a present opportunity that was mixed with doubt, with hope for a moro certain suc cess in the future under a different guise? COME OFF THE ROOST. "With some Jews, nothing succeeds like failures. It was scarcely a personal rebuke to Emile Firman. The State Agricultural college never be fore represented so little. The first Democratic congressman from Kansas was John It. Goodwin. Very properly, the corn raisers are going to see to the reiguiug themselves. Jay Gould has sheltered himself in Dan Anthony's bosom, by trying to wreck Johnny Wananiaker. Senator Ingalls has not given up the race for his old seat, and if he had, he would not leave Kansas. It is possible that calling the late elec tion a "laud-slide" is giving undue credit to the Democratic party. It is plain enough to see now that those corn-fed fires last winter warmed many an Alliance caucus into life. There are only four lawyers in the next "house." It is not often that Truth gets on its feet so forcibly in Kausas. In the way of throwing cold water on the farmer's political aspirations, one of them has invented a sun-bonnet. The "funnel-shaped cloud," in Kansas you hear about, is nothing more than a shock of corn turned upside down. There are one or two men in Kansas who would refuse Ingalls' place in the senate on the principle that "comparisons are odious." Most of the Alliance in Kansas would feel far happier, if they were not conscious of the fact that they havo pleased Dan Yoorhees. Somebody must have kissed it. This is the only explanation apparent why Har rison Kelley's mascot, his vote against the ment After Rumsey's successful exper iment at Sheperdston, he went to Liver pool, England, hoping to interest capital ists, and thereby beable to engage skilled workmen to perfect his designs, and had so far succeeded that a bo it of about 100 ions burthen was under course of con struction and very near completion, when he consented, at the suggestion of some gentlemen,,tagive a public exposi tion of his project. order to further en list patronagean'dihb interest of the pub lic. The evening came, and the audi ence assembledito, hear Rumsey combin ed the intelligence1, weal'h and beauty of Liverpool. He was poor, uneducated, and this unlooked for interest over whelmed him. He arose to begin his lecture, and a gentleman noticing his con iu&ed and agitat d manner, handed him a glass of water; he murmered inco herent thanks, threw his hand to his head, and sank back in his chair, strick en with apoplexy.' The boat he had con structed was set in motion, after his death, on the Thames river, in 1786. On February 9, 1839, Congressman Rumsey, of Kentucky, offered the following reso lution before tho house of representa tives, which unanimously passed: Re solved by the senate and house of repre sentatives, etc., that the president be and is hereby requested to present to James Rumsey, Jr.. the son and only surviving child of James Rumsey, de ceased, a suitable gold medal, commem orative of his father's services and high agency in giving to the world the bene fit of "the steamboat." John Fitch, who was also interested in steamboat build ing, was a contemporary of Rumseys, and an extract from his journal breaths a hopelessness that is pitiful; he says: 'The day will como when some more powerful man will get fame aud riches from my invention, but nobody will be lieve that poor John Fitch can do any thing wortiiv of attention." As early another message, but they all wentdown aeain when it was discovered, that it per tained to relief. One ot the Oklahoma legislators went to bed the other night, it is said, with a lighted cigar in his mouth, and falling asleep came very near being crematett There is a very strong, unmistakable smell of whisky about that. Governor Steele in speaking of the Eagle's interview with General Miles, denies that he suggested a bill for the facility of Oklahoma's display at the Columbian exposition. He says that when it was brought to him for consultation, the only suggestion that he made was that he didn't see where we were to get the 5,000 appropriation that the bill provided for to meet the general expenses. Guthrie Xews: One of those sndden changes from poverty to affluence has just been enjoyed by X. B. March, who has a homestead in section 19, township 19, range 1. On October 37 he came to the local relief board and received the aid, of which he was then sorely in need, but told Mr. McKay that he hoped he should never have to call for any more aid. He has since received 72,000, mostly in govern ment bonds, from his father's estate, and has been notified that bis application for a pension ban been allowed, and ho will receive $3,200 in arrears. Most of this property is in bonds, but a few coupons can be properly devoted by Mr. MarcU to relief fund. EXCHANGE SHOTS. McKinlev bill, didu't work P. P.

Capital. "Who is this man Hudson with all his devious political record, that thus as sumes tho responsibility of summarily dismissing so largo an element from the ranks and counsels of tho Republican party of Kansas? Tho Resubmissionists nor tho Alliance are not asking tho Re publican party to hold out any mistaken, or other kind, of hopes, but they are de manding action, and unless such action is satisfactory and prompt, tho little, crooked, cranky crew of Kansas political dictators will never be heard of after an other election or two. Now, tho Eagle is not the mouthpiece of the Republican party, nor of tho Re submissionists, nor of tho Alliance, but it has more readers than tho Capital or than any other daily published in Kan sas, and twice as many readers who are not politicians and oilico seekers, and wo "Them words is Latin." It will make him speaker in the next house. Our young world fair commissioners are probably wondering why they are not being complimented for their diplomacy in keeping out of the last campaign. It is not likely that the Republican State Central committee will be very pressing in their demands on President Harrison to open the Cherokee strip. Jerry Simpson carried the Seventh dis trict and thinks he can carry the United States. It is a feeling for humanity per haps that alone keeps Atlas from throw ing up his job. Xoble Prentis has a long article in the Star on "Pictures in Boston." Prentis is never demagogic. He knows the average farmer reader, who is looking lor Alliance notes, will "darn his pictures." It is said that S. C. Shoemaker, the blind editor of AVetmore, died of a broken heart on account of a scandalous publication in a Kansas City paper about one very near to him. fcome wretch read the article to him, and from that moment he began to despond, aud was dead in three days.

New York Star: The approaching de feat of Senator Ingalls for re-election to the senate is likely to result in his becom ing a resident of this city. I called upon the senator just before he left Washington to arrange with him about writing an ar ticle for a newspaper. lie told me that if hibited models to General "Washington, Rumsey had also obtained patents of the British government for steam naviga tion. In a letter to Hugh "Williamson, M. C, dated Alt. Vernon, March lo,17So, "Washington commends Rumse'y boat for its utility. One more historical fact aud I havo done. Fulton obtained his ideas of the steamboat from Rumsey, by whom ho was em ployed as draughtsman, but even with this advantage the chances are that Gulton would havo failed had ho not been befriended by Chancellor Living stone, who is said to have had better mechanical ideas than Fulton, and whose wealth and influences aided largely in 1 ringing tho practical uses of the steam boat to the cons deration of tho public. Apropos of all this: by reference to the Ago of Steam it will be seen that steam was applied to tho propelling of a boat at Alexandria, Egypt, nearly 300 years before Christ, and by other men before the Christian era, but was not made practicable.

A convention of Christian workers is announcod to be held in Anthony on Fri day, Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 2S, 20 and 80, for the purposo of organizing a local branch of the Young Men's Chris tian association for Harper county.

Meantime he can devote himself to edu cating tho Suckers up to the McKinlev standard, a la Gen. Palmer. About two years ago a follow named McKoe obtained possession of something like $SOO,000 in money belonging to the Choctaw Indians and disappeared, with the cash. The dispatches announce that he has been located at Victoria, Van couver, and has been making quiet vis its to Seattle and other points on this side of the lino. Tho dispatches also in form Mr. KcKeo that the government is onto his racket and has set a watch to catch bun the next tima he comes across tho line. Of course that does him up. A man that has no moro smartness than to get out of the ooun ry after stealing such a sum of tuoiU'y as McKe did. is just tho kind of chump to rotua back and give himeolf up when notified that bo k wanted. Tho financial Hurry in tho east of tho past few days seems to have been of Eng lish origin. Tho explanation given in tho dispatches is that the capitalists of England as weil as that government havo been spreading out over the earth beyond their carrying capacity, and this country being tho handiest credi tor, to the capitalists, aud tho ono from which they could with moro certainty and promptness get responses to their demands, they naturally looked hero fir&t for help in their distress. Fortunately we are in condition to meet all the de mands without serious inconvenience. There was some apprehension for the moment, but "Wall street, the sensitive plant of our financial system, was not seriously ugitntod. THE WAY OUT. From the I.eaveuw ortli Tlme. The late Justice Miller, of tho supremo court of tho United States, onco said to tho editor of The Times: Tlio people of the county of Leavenworth liavn't moral integrity enough to hold their officials to a just accountability. This was the estimate made of Leaven worth by ono of tho ablest juri&ts that ever occupied a seat upon the supremo bench. Judge Miller sat upon the bench here when the &uits for the collection of our city and countv bonds were being tried before him. He saw the profligacy and incompetency of tho Democratic officials who managed our city an I county af fairs. Ho saw the result and, tilled with disgust at tho plunderers and the peoplo who permitted tho continued robbing, after the conmromisiug of the debt he proclaimed his opinion in tho Innguage above quoted. Whoro aro we today, financially? Tho city and coiini two millions of dollars in debt with 5 to 6 por cent, per annum taxes to ty. Bu&ine-s paralyzed. Empty houes. Hundreds of unemployed men standing around the corners of our streets with no work, no money to pay mortgages or grocerv or taxes. Wliat xre t'ey going to do? Continue to vote the Democratic ticket? No! They will bolt that rotten party which has run us in debt this enormous sum. They will bolt that party which has, as its only plank in its platform, "whisky," and with Unit cry have, for the post oight years, elected city and county olii cials only to fleece the people. It is for the wise men of Leavenworth to show us a way out of our difficulties. The Times sees onlv one way. The Democratic party is dead. It is no longer a factor m state polictios. Evory vote given to that party at tho lato election was thrown away. No Democratic vote given at that election was counted. Every Democratic voto was valuele. The way out is to organize. Organize a national Republican party, standing fquarely on the national "Republican elatforiu, excluding all outside issues, roliibuion must be relegated to the jst.

In 17S1 a mechanic named James Rumsey was employed by tlio Potomac company, of which George "Washington was a mem ber, to improve the navigation of the Potomac river. In 1783 he directed his attention to steamboats, and in the year 1783, in the October session of the Vir ginia assembly, he obtained the passage of an act guaranteeing to him the exclu sive use of his invention for navigating the waters of the state, for ten years from date, they reserving the privilege to buy his right at any time for 10,000. In tho following year ho succeeded in propelling his boat, by steam alone, at Shepherdstown, against tho current of the Potomac, at the rato of four or five miles an hour. Thero aro some note worthy incidents connected with that events. It is said that George "Washing ton was a pass nger ou this lirt steam voyage, and that among the curious who had gathered together to witness this trial, was General Gates, of Revolution ary fame. Tho general is said to be near-sighted, and so great was his sur prise when tho boat actuallv bejran to move away, that he threw up his hands, exclaiming: "My God! Thero sho goes." Rumsey obtained tho verdict which the world so generously bestows upon the pioneers in science; he was familiarly known as "Crazy Rumsey." and his boat as the ''Hying boat." Some pieces of Rumsey's boat re on exhibit in the Smithsonian at Washington, D. C, and some are in the possession of Hon. Alex ander Botoler, ex-member of congress, of Shepherdstown, to whose research and lectures upon this subject I tun largely indebted for tho information here given. I append a description of Runisev's boat, as it is given in "Stuart's Anecdotes of the Steam Engine," an English publica tion. Rumsey's boat was fiftv ftet in "MIcHwUorx orw. a snlendtd OMtntry for l.ook at the "lura-up" length, and was propelled by a pump worked by a stentn engine, wh.ch forced a quantity of water up throuch the keel: the valve was then shut by the return of the stroke, which, at the same time forced the water through a channel, or pipe, a few square inches (lying above or (Nirallel to the kelson) out "at the stern uuder tho rudder, which had a less depth than usual, to permit tho exit of tho water. The impetus of this water forced through the square channel against the exterior nater, acted as an impelling power upon the vessel. Tho reaction of the affluent water, propelled her at the rato above mentioned, when loaded with three tons in addition to the weight of her engine of about one-third of a ton. The boiler held no more than live gallon of water and needing only a pint at a time. The wliole machinery did not occupy a space greater than that required for a barrel of flour, and the fuel consumed was not more than from four to six bushels of coal in twelve hours. Several of Rum sey's inventions in modideti forms, are now m general ue; a, for in tauce, the cylindrical boiler, so superior to the old tub or still ltoilers. in presentation of fire urfac and cajweity for liokimg highly rruei ,-Jeaai. is oxscrioaa. bxii usl? and combtaed. m. ha sfxtifirauoos, and is kioMSical in priciile with the tab boni er wktck 1m used in his Potomac ctxpexv The evening bessions wero in the Pres byterian church, a very large edifice, and were largely attended. The meetings wero very harmonious, and Mrs. E. Phinney showed, as on former occasions, her wonderful execu tive powers, and carried through an amount of business that was surprising, some times getting ahead of the program. The lines of work mapped out for the coming year are such as commend them selves to tho most womanly of women, and are almost wholly educational and reformatory, and entirely in the line of temperance, each local union being free to adopt its own methods. The conven tion was mado up of ladies of culture and experience. As a- guarantee of which statement wo need onlv to say that Oberlin sent twelve, Cleveland more than that number, while other towns aud cities were as well repre sented. For a detailed report it would require a wholo page of the Gazette. I will onlv add that it was a pleasant and profitable convention and cannot fail to be pro ductive of beneficial results. F. M. Bostwick. that the Republicans have elected the one congressman who was particularly unfit for tlio office. The Kansas election has not been without its ironies, Tit for Tat. From the EmporU Itepabllcan "Where, oh where," exclaims the Leavenworth Times, "is tho Democratic party?" It seems to bo principally in tlio United States. Can tho Times give any information as to the present where abouts of tho Republican party? Comparisons aro Odious. From the Emporia Republican. The Topeka Capital says Mr. Otis is the best one of tho five Alliance men elected to congress. But as tho Capital calls the other four iguoramuses and blather skites, this cannot be regarded as a vory high compliment. How We Apples Swim. From the Emporia Kcpubllcan, Tho Atchison Champion regrets that it had to defeat the Republican party of Kansas so severely, but it was acting for the best and has no apologies to make. Tiio Champion never hesitates when there is a great moral duty to perform, even though the task may bo distasteful. It would rather bo right than president, any day in the week. The Cards Were Stocked From the bnllna Republican. Some usually astute Republican poli ticians are saying that "if we had an other week's campagn we would have beat 'em." No, you wouldn't, loys. It was not in the cards for us to win. You might as well realize that we ran up against quite a substantial well. The Alliance pledges held good until tho election if that didn't take place until next year. OKLAHOMA. OUTLINES. J. I). Miles has resigned as mayor of Kingfisher.

Ko, we guess not. But it is a big three all the same three important interests on the tapis now for Wichita, two of 'em certain, to be announced within a week or two and the third up for decision this afternoon, and as good as a go. Big things: not the bigsest in the world, not as big as two others now fermenting one in Boston and the other in St. Louis but big things as the world goes in the way added capital, added enterprise and added people. By next spring Wichita will be in the swim bigger, greater and stronger than at any time in all her wonderful history of ac complished facts. Nothing but a financial earthquake, and busine-s wreck, to the country at large, can beat her out of enter prises which soon will be announced, one after another, by theEAGLE,in the coming weeks and some of which will account for thep sence in this city during the past week of the New 1'orkers, Bostonians, Chica goans and St. Louis men, whose names have appeared in the personals only of these col umns. The many now will say it's all blow, but the same many, before May next, some of them before Christmas, wili look wise and declare that they had hints all along. Well, it's all riglit. Wichita is here, solid in many respects, splendid in all; here as the principal objective point of a vast area of countiy; here with more prestige, with greater railway facilities, with more capital and brighter men thnn are boasted by auy city of its size and age in the state or in the world, and that she .should, under such circumstances and of such a composition, make another astounding stride is as logical as that food produces fatness. Three interests we spoke of, and two additional. What was meant, w.is, that that number would materialize im mediately, were settled upon, determined and fixed. There are, 11 told, and all seemly probable if not equally probable, fourteen important interests with their eyes now on Wichita. The governor of South Carolina in his observation to tho governor of North Caroliua only referred to relative, not to absolute, time. The long lane did come to a turn, and it was doubtless a big turn. Wichita's time has elapsed and her turn has come again. With all her splendid opportunities and possibilities, with all her transcendent ad vantages and uneqnaled facilities, her emerging will not be half tho subject of surprise, won der and speculation as was her less understood past. No explanations of her unexampled growth are necessary to her own people. And thoso who abandoned her when she was struck with the same adverse wave that swept over every grow ing town of the west, will declare, as she rushes forward again with an absorbing momentum, that it was inevitable, and that they knew all along that it would be so, whereupon they will proceed to cite the factors. There has not been a single man of all the capitalists and representa tives of tho enterprises alluded to, and who have been here in tho past few days, who did not say, in effect, and a number of them in the exact words, that Wichita is as a city, all that Kansas City, Omaha, Den ver or Minneapolis are. save in age only, and that in the matter of time she will not be half so long in attaining the commercial statues of either tho places named, no more than that they were not half so long iu gaining tho importance of like siezed cities further east. Wichita is all right, and no man can visit any number of tho other important towns of tho west and not be impressed with hor rolativo advantages and with her superlative claims to present importance coming greatness. JTEET1G OF COlTY CLERKS. The State association of county clerk which will meet hero Tuesday and Wed nesday next, has some important work to attend to. It is contemplated that an effort will be made to agree upon some suggestions to make to the coming legisla ture, in the hope of securing needed legis lation. It is thought the attendance will be larger than usual and that the meeting will be quite an important one. CITY HOSPITAL.

WHAT TUE KING Jl.STtt SAYS. A gentleman who stands in on the new deal on United States senatorship ques tion was in the city yesterday fresh from Topeka, the political headquarters. He says Willits wants to succeed Ingalls awful bad but Ijlk, who is chief ring mister, says "no." The high mogul says Peffer must be the next senator, and in order to crack whip around in that direction he will be here in person in a few days, touch the button and make every member of the legislature answer present and for Peffer. He is quite strong iu his denunciation of Willits He is qite strong iu his denuncia tion of Wil.its Keis, Snider and fifty other candidates who hope for a chance for powerful opportunities. The informant says it is simply a picnic to gather the chat about the fitness of the hopeflu for United States senator. FISH AND ICE lite Serea Acre Lake Omtt-d by Via: JIolT About Complete A Doable HeIetL Business Scheme, THEMA-IELNTH Ullfl IIDAY. The 16th birthday is an event that is looked forward to with the greatest possi ble pleasure. That point where the boy passes into young manhood, and all the possibilities of the future are faced for the first time. This was the experience of Mr, Frank Covell yesterday, and right royally did his intimate friends help him cele brate, after a complete surprise, at his home iu tho Thompson block South Market street. Many were the good wishes that were offered, and when he was presented with a handsome gold pen holder and ink vv ell as a token of love and friendship his joy was complete. Tho evening was spent iu pleasant games, aud refreshments were served at a late hour, announcing that the time had come to part, all wishing many, many happy re turns Those preseut were Messrs. Coney, Cobb, Christopher, Brousou, McGade, lord, Heeple, Dunkin, McNaughten, Ire land, McCleve, Covell, Hassig, Ferguson, Kelly, Cochran, Oldfield, Spurrier, Ford ham, Jeuuings, Stecems, Southwell, Hassig, Yount and Troupe. A PI'OINTJlhM' OF tOLM'Y AUD1TOK. Wm. Hoff commences to pnjip water into his Combination ice and fist lake to day. The lake is located on Hydraulic be tween Second and Third streets aud cover- seven acres. He has been at work for sev eral months making excavations and get ting ready for business. The excavations provide for seven feet of water, but most of the time it i intended to- carry six feet Thepump'ng station, with machinery, was completed yesterday. Six drive wells, down thirty feet, have been provided, ranging in diameter from seven to ten inches. The pump in the station has a capacity of two thousand gallons per minute. Everything is ready for the water and the pumping will commence today. It will be made ready to absorb the low temperature in order to get an ice crop. With the average amount of low temperature Mr. HofT expects to get several six inch layers of ice which may be calling for silver and gold next summer during the lomonade and ice cream season. In the event the ice crop is a failure, Mr. Holf istready to try it in the fish raisinz. He is prepared to catch the coon "a gwin and a comin." He has made arrangements for 10,000 German carp to be delivered next spring which will be turned looe in the lakes. He expects after one year to be able to receive some income from this source which will gradually increase and finally amount to a handsome figure. Be fore stocking the lake with carp the banks will be boarded up making a solid walL Some stone will be thrown in to make an inviting homo for the fish. SOJIETIIIG OF TUB SITUATION. Messrs. Russell Harding of the Missouri Pacific, and C. V- Ferguson, esq., left yes terday for Paris, Texas, where they will spend a day or two attending to some business matters, and will turn themselves loose on the happy hunting grounds of Texas for a few days. They took guns, blankets, ammunition and all the neces saries for a time. The party of Chicago men who have been several days in town, and who left last night, are said by those who know some thing of the gentlemen, to be heavy capitalists. They went over aud over the town asking no questions and indulging in no remarks so far as any one could hear farther than to say that Wichita seemed to be a city in her own right. A team belonging to Henry Schnitzler, was tied in the alley between Market and Main, near Second, host evening when the fire department made their run on Market. The horses broke looso and tried to run away, but only went a few feet when they ran into a telegraph pole and were brought to a stand still, doiug no damage except breaking some parts of their harness. Dr. Minnick has engaced a band to play at a grand rejoicing in Kechi townshio to night. Some time agohe agreed to furnish the music for the occasion provided there was such a performance. He did not think Jerry would be elected but if he was the doctor sav-. he recalled thequotatiou about the savage and music and hence he prom ised a band, and tonight he hopes to get along safely.

Tho chnrity ball to bo given tonight at Garfield hall by the M. It. C promNos to be si groat succoss. A large number of tickets havo been sold and tho arrange ments complete for a pleasant evening for nil iu attendance. The guarding of ballots in the county building was suspended j otorday by plac ing the returns in a safe and turning on Mio combination. This will give some rest and at thesame time make tho returns equally as secure. Mr. W. A. Thomas and a party of St. Louis gentlemen wont soutn last evening to tho toiritory, where a hunt aud fish of ten days or so will be indulged in. They toik along tnough traps, guus, etc., to .ake tho heart of Africa. Mr. R, Amidon, father of S. B. Amidon, rq arrived ywterday morning from Ohio mil will mkt Wichita his future home. Mr Amidon's family have been here some time, he rcuiamutgin Ohio to sottlo -ome business matters prior to coming west. A lamp explosiou at 411 North Markot called out the department, but there was no loss, as the fire was out Wore the de partment arriived. A gasoline stovo about he same time, at 481 North Fourth ave nue, created some oxoitomeut but no dam a -;e. A horse boiongins; to C. A. Van Ness sot quite gay on DuhrIhs, ner Market, ye tcrdaj and proceeded to kick out the dash board. It was tuoueht best to give him a recess aud the niatujr was disponed of in that way. The horse could not give bond for decent behav ior on thestreetand hence was relegated to the barn. W H. Aucutnoody has been appoiuttd the agent by the publishers of Mrs. John A. Logau's new book, the Home Mammal, a magnificently gotun up work of KKX pages and almost innumerable illustra tions. The book is a semi-historical and literary work combiued containing pict ures and lovely sketches of all the promi nent and beatiful women of America, the wives of all the presidents, of the presi dents tbeinsolves, of artists, otc The Maunnal would make a delightful bolkhn present. Senator Bentley received word yesterday from his client, C. Eisenmayer, Jr., of Halstcad, that tho prospects for the early construction of the Dakota, Wichita and Galveston railway aro very bright. Mr. EisenmHver is tho president of the pro posed line, and has already expended con siderable money in the preliminary work, the city propositi m in the late election carried, and it had been expected to biu work on the new line at this point. The construction in this city and county will depend upon ccrtaio. contingencies, right of way and other details, all pre liminary to beginning active work. Ten days will probably see a surveying parly in the field locating the line. It is probablo that tho first ten miles of the line from Hal stead to Bentloy will be built this fall. The grade is very light and the right of way inexpensive, follow ing a half section line the entire way be tween the poiut. named. From the latter point into tho city is about fifteeu miles in a direct line to the stock yards, which no railway entering this city can afford to miss. Much valuable right of way in Eagle township has been guaranteed to the railway company. It is quite likely that tho new railway company will soon appear before the coun cil asking for a rii;ht of way through the town. Close inquiry re veils tho fact that the company desires to go down Wichita street, crossing tho Arkansas river near the prosont Missouri Pacific railway bridge and following the west bank of the river in a southerly direction from this point. Iu any event it is probable that the line will be built south from this city. It isthought by some that new line constructed in the city should be be compelled to use streets already occupied bv lines now built. Mr. Eisenmayer, the projector of the new hue. is entitled to groat credit for his public spirit, push and energy, which it is hoped will soon be carried to a successful term ination. It is supposed there will be the usual pow-wow about the right of way through the city There will no doubt bo resolu tions, reports and ordinances referred to the railroad committee. It will no doubt take many weeks and posaibly months be fore the matter will be made ready to slide through. But as most of the exciting city workseenis to be ovor and possibly an other railroad frauchise would assist in breaking the monotony of the dreary winter mouths. On Saturday next Judge Reed will ap point the Rev. N. E. Harmon county audi tor, to succeed R, C. Deam, whose term of office expires. The salary is $1,000 a year and bond $50,000. Mr. Harmon was ap prised yesterday morning thattheappoint ment would be made. Jle proceeded at once to figure on the requirements and finding that a bond was necessary for one handling the county's money, commenced to get ready to comply with the law. He did not propose for a moment to .attempt to hold an office requiring a bond without being prepared to give it. He is allowed ten days from date of appointment to pres ent bond, but it was icady after a few hours of woik yesterday. The friends of Mr. Harmon will no doubt be glad to hear of tho appointment and no one will possibly doubt but that the inter ests of the couuty in the auditor's office will bo carefully and conscientiously guarded. It is one of the offices that two or three legislatures have threatened to cut off, there bting a belief that the coun'y clerk would be the proper man to do the work at less expense. It is often coupled with the commissioner of election office which w.is instituted two years ago, in order to give a back-number politician of Kansas City, Kansas, an office. It is thought that in the event there is shaking of the tree to knock off the place consid ered unnecessary. Wichita will catch some of the benefits. T. TV. C. A. The Hon. S. R. Peters was in the city yesterday a few hours, en route home from Kingman, where he was attending to some legal business. In a conversation last eve ning he said ho was quite glad that he was not on the train that was partially smashed on the 4th inst. He is of the opiniou that when the legislation of the last congress is better understood it will be better appre ciated and more popular. The imagined defects creating such a howl when put to the practical test, he thinks, will prove to be purely imaginary, and the meritorious features will be felt and recognized in the commercial world. Mr. Peters says he is quite glad to get away from public life and get down to pri vate business. It is hard to realize the gre.it work that is connected with representing the largest district iu the United States and the correspondence alone is enough to employ many clerks and demand hours of personal attention from the representative. Mr. Peters says the work is painfully monotonous. Mr. Peters leaves for Washington on the 21st inst. to attend the meeting of the committee on appropriations which is com pelled to commence work before the ses sion begins. He expresses the hope that tho next congress will comply with its pledges and as the calamity members from Kansas are with the majority in the house he sees no reason why they will not be able to suggest some "cure all" remedies.

Ilauscome, who for some time was connected with the Royal Spice .Mills and who has interest- in this city, but for some time has been living in Den ver, is expected to visit Wichita within a few days to look after some business mat ters. He writes that Denver is all right as a boom flashing town, but he considers values iu Wichita on a more solid basis and investments here quite as safe as in any other city in tho country. The stage manager for E E. Rice's Sur prise Party in the World's Fair is Mr. Charles Hagin, son of J. B. Uagin, who some years ago kept a grocery store on the southeast corner of Market and Doug las. He left Wichita in 'bo with the Ennis Young Oiera company, joined the New York Ideal Opera company, and for two seasons was with tho George If. Adams company, and one season was in tho Casieno in New York. He has many friends in the city who will be glad to see him. Cards of invitation havo leen received by friends in Wichita to the marriage of Miss May Cox to Frank L. McFaddeu, at the bride's home iu Seattle, Wash. The marriage will,take place at 8.30 o'clock on Wednesday evening, December 8, 18'JO. Rev L W. Read, late pastor of the First Baptist church, Wichita, will solemnize thorites. The bride-to-be was formerly a resident of this city, on the West Side, and has many friends and admirers here who will rejoice at her prospective good fortune. "Tho waters of Siloam. Nature's nata torium. Bathing suits supplied by the city fathers." The above is a quotation of the inscription on a sign near the Royal Spice mills.

It is a lasting performance. The property owners aud residents in tho vicinity have petitioned, prayed and "cussed" for a change but it comes not, and it nil availeth little. It has at last been decided that as no change is to be made it might as well be utilized as a natatorium.

SALT AM) SALT. The great salt shaft at Kingman is down to rock salt and thousands of tons will soou be coming up from the blasts made m the depths below Mr. Webb, who is putting in the new works at Lyons, spent yesterday in this city. Sixty thousand dollars worth of the best improved machin ery is being put in by him, and when the shaft and machinery are all completed two toua of of rock salt will be landed at the surface every trip of the elevators, which will be every few minutes night and day. The new salt shafts at Lyons and King man will make the salt mines of other states mighty sick. The Elecric Railway company is after thieves. Tho management was unani mous in a resolution to tackle them wher ever they could And them, and on all oc casions would fiud them. For some time the robbers have been going on the tneory that it is perfectly legitimate to steal from the company. As a result they have been stealing ties, all kinds of lumber, trolly wire or any other kind of wire, and any and all kinds of construction material. It seems that the thieves are hunsry, or at least they steal material valuable to the company, but which can be sold for very little. They are having a great time con cealing the goods, and so far this week six of them hnve been unsuccessful. They are being arres ed ou state warrants, and will le given careful attention by the company. It is intended to prosecute vigorously, and there is uo doubt but that some will be caught who will be greatly surprised at finding out they have been caught. The company hits received the steam pipe which has caused so long delay It is now being put in position and steam power will be ready to use by the last of the week. The new dynamos for the power station have arrived and the electric machinery is about ready for business. The two new dynamos will furnish the power for the plant until the Riverside dynamo and tha one stationed at the plow works are re moved to tha Central station where the four will be ready for service on any emer gency. The company will be ready to utilize tbe Douglas avenne bridge across ChLsholm creek as soon as it is completed. It is sup posed tha construction of tbe bridge will interfere with the College Hill service to some extent, provided there is au service that far east before work is commenced oa the bridge. The electric lights on West Douglas and North Main were off duty last night. Only the gas blinkers could be seen and things looked a little gloomly. It was reported that the elee'ric current got tangled in one of the dynamos at the station and the dynamo got the worst of it in the shuffle A representative of tho Thompson Houston said yesterday that the contract for all night as presented by the council would be given to the directory. The only change made was to cut the percent on overdue bills. He thought that feature would not make auy difference to the com pany provided the city would pay its bills on time, which would not cdl for per cent high or low, but the experience during the last year was such as to suggest delays of several months and also suggested that it would be business on the Dart of the company to provide for such emer gencies in a business-like way. The 10 per cent was allowed tho Citizens' company and was legal rate and as low as the com panv could borrow money should it be forced to do o becau se of failure on the part of the city to pay promptly Under the circumstauces he thought the com pany could afford to give half night serv ice at $S.33 per month per light instead of all night at $0 with the chances of giving the service an 10 per cent money and wait ing for payments at 6 per cent. This.how ever, was a matter the directory would de termine upon in due time and in the meanwhile tbe Second ward and North Main will plod along with half night serv ice while the citizens in that section avist in paying for all night service in other parts of the city. The police force expect to get out today with regulation uniforms. They wre famished by the Loudon tailors, ad tbe cap-., belt and clubs purcha.-ed jn New York. Tbe force will hare quite a metro politan appearance. For three days tbe report has been mak ing the rounds that Governor Humphrey was In the city, and created considerable excitement m some quarter.

Rict's "Surprise Party" opened at the opera house last night in "Tho World's Fair," a musical mid spectacular burlesque upon the discovery of America. The scen ery is simply graud and is inkeeping with the beautiful and costly costumes. The play opens with tho appearance of Colum bia outlining the object of the world's fair, and bidding nil nations to take part. As the play procresses is seen a scene upon the deck of the Santa Maria, Columbus discovers America, in succession is given the grand entrance to the world's fair, art callery, the statuary department, etc. An attempt to describe the beautiful scenery, the elegant costumes and pleasing special ties would necessitate a complete descrip tion of tho play. Each country contrib utes to the fair in a most entertaining way. Tho specialties are all good aud more they are in the hands of capable art ists. The closing of tho thud act is tho finest piece of stat;e setting ever seen in the city. Connection was made with the electric light aud in this act is seen the burning of a hundred or more incandescent lights, which is daz zling beyond description. There is a vein of rich comedy throughout the piece, which keeps an audience iu a continual burst of laughter. Judmng from tho attendance last night and the appreciation shown by the audience, another crowded house will be seen this evening. It is refreshing to listen to Charles A. Gardner roll off! witticisms in the German dialect, warble tuneful ballads IikeaTyro lese, in his pleasing comedy "Fatherland His manner is irresistible, while his meth ods are natural and concise.

Tavorito Colors and New Designs. Women frequently choose tho wall paper for their sitting rooms to go with their complexions, it is said. A good idea. Somo papers, yellowish greens for example, throw sickly hues over a room. These pa pers aro of course destructive to the com plexion. Women who aro in the habit of consulting their appearance in tho glass know very well that they look much nicer in some rooms than in others. A celebrated painter who goes in for wall decoration has told that lady visitors were often puzzled w Know wny tney always looked their best in his drawing room. Thev never thoucht of tracing tho improvement to the walls. A successful room is in pink of soft, pale tint. Blue is a more popular color and also more trying. Pale greens are expected to be in demand shortly. Somo very pretty papers aro self colored. These are more convenient than the highly colored papers, for you can hang anyth.ng against a self colored ground. The designs of the new papers are many of them conventionaL For bedrooms chintz effects take best. The designs of some of these are natural esque. Uniqucdcsigns for childrens' rooms are "Alice in Wonderland," "Dick Whit tington"and "The House That Jack Bnilt," with the fable in each case complete. One of the newest papers for a st&ircase or vestibule is taken from an old oriental design. It has a cream colored ground covered with a bold pattern of birds and flowers. The peacock is tho most con spicuous figure in the design. I saw somo line tapestry papers for tb same purpose that were not gloomy. Bed is still the favorite color for dining room walls. It is warm certainly, but not always restful. Papers with metal tints are not being used so Ireely now. They have a reputation for tarnbhmg. In decorating, the color icheme is thought out beforehand, so that instead of getting violent contract., the iecoration of one room only heightens tho Ject of another. Hobbies and Health. Most men have a hobby; all men should. It clears up the brain in a wonderful way, taking the tired attention into other chan nels, rubbing off the cobwebs and infusing a fresh interest into life. At 70 years of age Alison, reviewing his days, and feel ing as strong as at 25, attributed his happy condition to a vnrietv of occupation. "Either tho law or tho literature singly," "'"i numu, i am jer5uaaea, nave ruined my health or terminated my life; but tho two together saved both." Micro scope or telescope, botany or literature tho hobby world is a wide one, and offers all kinds of entertainment to the man with time and intelligence. PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE. Shall the Baby Xot Be Kockcd? Aside from the sentiment it is not wise to rock a baby. It is alo a woman's no tion that the eternal swaying facilitates sleep. The lullaby is quite as effectual and considerably sweeter rendered m a sta tionary chair. According to The World, in the baby hospitals, homes and asylums of New York, where thousands of little ones are carefully and tenderly reared, rocking chairs and swinging cribs .are abolished on the ground of nervous dis orders. The death rate is lower than among private nurseries, and the general health and habits of the babies consider ably better. Toilet nint.

Professor Tyson, of tho University of Pennsylvania, in a lecture delivered re cently before the nurses of the university hospital, said that no room should be oc cupied by a sick person which does not have an area of at least 1,700 cubic feet. It should have a southern exposure, and even in summer should receive as much sunlight as possible. Excepting in cer tain diseases, about which tho physicians should give direction?, there should be plonty of sunlight admitted to the room all day. The furniture and hangings of the room should be of such a nature that they could be easily cleaned and washed, and they should be kept in a perfectly clean condition. The constant circulation of air m the room should be a prime requirement, but this should be secured without draught upon the patient A lighted lamp placed in the fireplace would give a flow of air which would be beneficial in cases where no heat was desired. The general temperature of the room should be from GS to 70 degs., and should be constant. Iced Tea linen Not Affect the i-rc. Dr. G W. Barr, writing to The Thera peutic Gazette, claims that tea kept jce cold for a short time has none of the phy siological action of theme. He has known a man of nervous temperament who fa kept awake all night by a single cap of tea to drink a half gallon of iced tea during the evening, aad sk-ep soundly at his usoa! time of retinne. Others made veryaer vocs by hot tea have beea abJa to drink large quantities of iced te with no appre ciable tffect. If the tea grounds are a! lowed to remain in tbe bquid the iced tea s usually kept fens enough before drink ing to dbeoiTe more tanam than u uscal in hot tea. fcen the tea shoaW be nuced The Strong Ioint of Vaccination. The London Lancet sums up the latest aspects of the vaccination controversy as follows: "The one thing we do know is that vaccine lymph, whatever its origin, has been proved to grant to people coming into the closest contact with smallpox pa tients an almost immediate immunity from the disease, and that its Inoculation into the arms of infants has succeeded in doing away with smallpox among chil dren, precisely accorduiK to the exteni to which the prophylactic has been used. As yet these pieces of overwhelming proof in favor of vaccination have not been dealt with by the anti-vaccinatlonists. Indeed, the points have been almost studiously avoided."

As the title of the play indicates the hero ine is at first a refl'jed romp, but who of course becomes a charming woman ere the curtain falls on the last act.

Belasco, the Cuban faced and dusky haired; and Price, with the mournful eyes and sad smile, were prcsont, and the writer protest ing against conducting an interview be fore spectators, Mrs. Carter banished them to a remote corner and fenced them in with a huge screen. If you try to talk to the lady about her appearance, her gowns, her prospects, her hopes, you speedilv iiml you are getting in formation about Dudley. Who is Dudley this princely little chap who is the light of his mother's eyes, aud iu whom she is completely bound up? "It all moans my boy," bho said pathet ically. "I am stimulated by the thought that if I succeed it moans money, and money means a home with Dudley some i day. Wo often talk, Dudley and I, of the j house wo arc to have and the dogs and horses. "I go to bee him every month, you know, nnd ho is so interested in my work. Ho knows all about 'The Cgly Duckling,' i ind I have dono the first scene over and 3er for him. He stands by, grave as a judge, and commends and prompts me, and In one or two places where a noiso startles the heroine he ties a knot in his handker chief and snaps it violently to make tho required noise. I was tulking to him about my appearance, and why I was going on t lie stage, aud when I told him it was to make a homo for him, and that meant hard work, self denial and economy for me, ho thoughtfully said, 'Mamma, you know I DUDLEY CAUTER. have some money. If you need any don't hesitate to take it. I can't bear to think you should want for anything,' and a Ruddon moisture crept into tho beautiful gray eyes. "Oh, yosl I have great ambitions. 1 want to play Shakespearean roles somo dny. I have studied Portia, Juliet and Heatrice. the latter part being an especial favorite of mine. I hope boforo tho winter is over to appear as Amy Robert, and Mr. Helasco is arranging au Kftio Deans for me, and also writing a play to be called sybilla,' I hope to bo judged on my merits, without any question of my private l.fe That I have had a great misfortune ought not it MVins to me, to be brought into the question. I hope it will not. I am, of course, nervous over tho result, but I am buojed by the thought of my child, and that it is for him, and I must not fail." "Is it true that Dudley will bo sent to Europe so that he may not bo in Chicago w hen you appear there?" 'I am told so," sue ausworcd, with gen tle bopolossnesc. t fi ir so." She has a doxeu Cerent pictures of her son, and seemed mu h more interested in my admiration of the handsome lad than in any details of her forthcoming appearance.

Everything regarding Chicago will be doubly interesting to the general pub lic for the nest two or three years, and it is therefore natural that the varied features of the young giant should be more or less discussed both at home and abroad. That is just what Chicago wants. That suits her. That is what she puts her various millions into an ex- LN TIIB ABATTOIR. speaking a word or two regarding the ctv v.r,lc

All sorts of honest aud successful industry are honorable, whether it be through the avenue of literature or dressed beef. Success is the mark of pub lic approval, and continued success the certificate of integrity. It was honora ble for Gen. Grant to canvass for a book or tan skins. It was honorable for Van derbilt to farm it or run a ferry. It was honorable for Gould to survey Delaware county with a wheelbarrow and a fine tooth comb. It was honorable for the older Astor to 6kin muskrats and swap brass collar buttons to the Indians for beaver skins if the noble red man suffered for collar buttons. What I dislike is for the descendant of Mr. Astor to cultivate c ch a SbnBt and malignant case of hauteur. Ho visited Chicago some time ago and stated in aa interview, which he had arranged for as soon as ho could at tend to it, that the people of Chicago fre- quently sat on the front stops and that visitors were met at tho door by the housemaid. Thereby covertly intimat ing that Mr. Astor is in the habit of an swering the door himself. Possibly, however, Mr. Astor keeps a man who answers the door bell and does nothing elso hardly. That may be, but it is only a few brief autumns since the bravo and sturdy mother of tho Astor race came around from tho spring house to greet the guest in her stocking feet, and the greeting was none the less cordial eyether for a' that and a' that. We should not bo held responsible for the errors and acquired snobbery of our grandchildren. From the deep recesses of the unborn future there may come some day a great-grandchild who will inherit my wealth and name, and while I squirm about in my clos fitting tomb he may have a valet to dress him in the morning and train up his whiskers on a trellis, and he may -visit Chicago where his ancestors had been so generously and so hospitably treated years before, and when he goes home to England or Tuxedo ho may send for a reporter and tell him how his refined nature was shocked all the time he was away. Glancing hastily from Mr. Astor to the Chicago stock yards, I will say that few realize, or can do so, tho magnitude of this ono institution of Chicago. Wo can hardly imagine 1,2S0 acres of ground covered with meat, to speak plainly; 1,280 acres almost covered at least with the business of converting live stock into food for man. I had never before vis ited this institution, and so I went there all dressed up, in order to mako an im pression on the working classes. Shortly after my arrival it came on for to rain, and having came on for that purpose it removed its coat, suspenders nnd hat, and rained more earnestly and more vociferously than anywhere elso I ever saw it outside of Ireland. I wore a frock coat, patent leather shoes and a silk hat. After a while tho mud, gore and hair, to wiy notning of lard and disar ranged liver, gave me a blase look that attracted attention when I got back on State stnvt One man whom I did not know asked me if taere had been any trouble or strike at the stock yards. The victor is apt to go first to the as sassinatiUj, department. I remember butchering day at home when I was a boy. It was different from this. Wo had generally about three shotes to kill, and wo waited ir.-t always until the weather was cold that we could not plow. Then vo uu'.iered. We began lbout daylight u heat water for scald ing purposes. Then wo climbed the fence tnd began a series of uncalled for yet oitier and personal a tacks on the elder maternal hog, while her oar piercing squeals rent the sky and her hot blood spattered our neat little overalls. All clay we alternately scorched ourselves froze to death, and at night three flabby, waxen remains, perfectly devoid of bow els of compassion or other viscera, pried, open so that the 2ovember wind could sough through their pulseless forms or 1 dally with their leaf lard through the long and frigid hours, hnng in a row. Then came the days when all through tho dear old homestead the smell of nice hot 1 lard soncht out everv corner and even MM mifn I i dV" m mi i I pervaaea tne oeautinu urown unen oao bath. school s tit, whirh caught and re tained the i isbicg fragrance for yoars after. Her you hear in tho diatwt and the comber depths of the Ijuflding a smoth ered wail ever and anon. You go toward it and find a brisk young man in tall rubber boots standing in a bloody stall with a flashing blade in his hand, while near him a big pan to which is at tached a long handle catches the hot, fresh tide of life as it spurts with a pur ple impulse following the long, keen blade. About every fifteen seconds, while we stood there, a new subject came up heels first out of the big slaughter pen, as a log is pulled out of the pond of a big saw mill, and with a plunge of the knife as it pissed on another swung into position Lead down, and the unerring steel struck the same point for ward of the shoulder and to tho left of the windpipe. Kb experiments were made. The young butcher's 6tyle of vaccination alwaj's took. I remember once, years ago, my father went away on business, to serve on the petit jury, I think, and told me to kill the pig. It was easy to say that. He might also have included other friends of the family, but he did not think of it per haps. However, I began the most elab orate preparations and tried to nerve myself up to it by frequent recourse to hard cider, for I had never.. personally shed innocent blood before. The pig would probably weigh about 100 pounds, and was not fierce until he found out that I seemed set on mutilating him without any apparent cause. Then he broke down the fence, ate up a small goddess of liberty which I had once had tattooed on my leg, to that I could bo identified in cse I should run away and go to sea and stumble against a watery grave, as I had intended to do at that j time. The animal wandered away into a corn field, and we tracked him by his I bloody footsteps. We overtook him along toward noon, and my younger brother held him down while I made an incision in the neck which proved fatal. As we started to drag the animal toward home his head fell off. I state this in order to show that sincerity and inflexi bility of purpose had already begun to show thomselves even at this early age. After some delay we succeeded in re moving the bristles, also some of tho pelt, and I began the delicate operation of prying into and exposing the animal's complex works. I guess it would not be best to describe this, for it gives me great pain to recall it. I only know that I cannot see yet what he had ever done with so many of them or who could have ever arranged such a large assortment in such a little space. They camo pouring out like a cataract of new and strange vitals with crotcheted borders on them, and altogether I felt saddened and de pressed. I went over to a neighbor and got him to come and assist me. I told him I had operated once or twico on a hen, but a hen travels light. She does not overburden herself with vitals that way. Just givo a hen two or three little fixings of that kind and sho will go around perfectly contented. But it is not so with a hog. I never saw a hog that knew when he had enough of any thing. In the early days they used to assess people hero at tho stock yards for beer money, and then if they did not get it they would pelt tho visitor with frag ments of liver and such littlo testi monials of respect as that. So it was a custom oven among temperance people to givo them the money. It was so until one day an English capitalist who owned a large sharo of one packing house got a steer's lung down the back of his neck and eighteen feet of sausage wound around his silk hat, and he spoke of it in terms of resentment to the superintend ent. Then it was changed. The sausage machine is one of the most intelligent that I ever saw. Tho Havana wrapper is pulled on over a metallic spout, and then by a terrific force ex- 5? wrra MY FRIETO m'aijjster. erted above the sausage meat reservoir the whole thing is pushed through this spout into the wrapper, and yard upon yard of this delicious bivalve is reeled off while you wait. Ono house takes the lives of 2.400 pigs per day, and they are clnlled and ready for the table by night. Mr. Armour per sonally killed "l,4o0,000 hogs last year, not in a spirit of revenge, but in order to improve the condition of mankind and keep tho rude and disagreeable wolf from Ids own door. Prying a little into his business affairs yesterday, I found that ho did a busi ness of fCo 000.000 hist voar. He also paa out 3,500,000 in wages. With a piece of chalk I figured on tho back of an oil painting in Mr. Armour's pleasant office that, allowing each year the same number of'animals killed last year, say 1,500,000 hogs, 630.000 cattle and 850,000 sheep at a low estimate, in five years Mr. Armour, single handed, could en circle the globe with a continuous girdle of intestines! What a thought! What food for thought also! But as Mr. Armour said in our talk, when I asked him for a little recipe for becoming a millionaire: "Here is the secret of the success of the Big Four. It is our system of carefully utilizing every thing. Here is a glass jar containing hoof'meal. That is valuable for its am monia. It is made from the despised hoof of the animal after the neatsfoot oil and other toilet articles have been re moved. Here is a jar of white pho phates,,inade from the pith of the horn. This industry will decrease if the de homing of cattle grows, but probably it will not appreciably. Here is a sort of gluo made from the tips of the rara and 0 nose or deceased ca trie wntcn me a violent death at our house. Here is a substance used in great quantities by the brewers. Somo time in the old days before your reformation yon have noticed when you pulled your beer glass off the top of the table that it had a tendency to stick. That is a gelatinous substance which we furnish the brewer iu great quantities. It is made from the thin white film which lies between the bone and skin of the head, for instance, and if nothing more harmful goe3 into beer it will never kill people off at a big rate. Then there is a jar of dried blood. Some is used for purifying sugar and considerable is sent to Xew Orleans, but more is used for making buttons. So you see we make our money by saving it. Hot long ago a Frenchman came to me and told me that I was losing a million or so un necessarily. I froze to Mm till he told me how. We found that our big reser voirs containing water, and in which we give the beef a bath to sort of cool it and close up the pores, had been emptied into the Chicago river for years, carry ing with it tho bouquet of the beef. We now condense and compress this nutri tious juice till we get the most stimu lating and the most delectable extract of beef that ever gladdened the tottering stomach of an invalid or a child." And so it goes. It seems that an adult steer can afford more real, pure joy by his death than any other animal, unless it be the wife beater. I am told that when a wife beater sits for his death mask, on a still day, you can hear the angels applauding. At Swift's establishment they have two odd animals, one a steer called Judas and the other a sheep called Iscariot. Each of these animals has a win ning way with his set, and is utilized for the purpose of leading his fellows into the slaughter pen even against their bet ter judgment. They have done this for years, and though the smell of blood naturally repels them, they listen to tht siren voices of these two heartless brutes who preserve their own lives at the sac rifice of thousands of others, and death is their portion. Some day I will again visit the stock yards. I hope to select a rainy day, and shall hope also to take my friend Ward McAllister with me by the hand, dressed in his best suit of clothes. Skipping gayly through the ruins of former beef creatures and the tottering relics of nude hogs that have been snatched from the glad sunlight and yielding mud of Illinois to deluge the abattoirs of thi3 great commercial town with their bright young blood, I would like to yank tho great parlor ornament clothed in a white flannel suit and his unwavering admiration of himself, while cheery young butchers pinned to his coat tails yard upon yard of the future home of tho sausage. It may bo a cruel wish, but when a man outshines me socially 1 cannot help it; I almost hate him. A Story of Congressman Rogers. It is related of John Rogers, the Ar kansas congressman, that ho recently sat down in a barber's chair, when the barber asked if he would not take off his collar. "Certainly," said Rogers pleasantly, "anything to accommodate," and, get ting out of tho chair, removed hi3 coat and vest, let down his suspenders, and began unbuttoning his shirt. "Jes yo' collah, sah," said the aston ished barber, "jes do collah; that'll be enough." "I understand," said Rogers. "I'm go ing to take it off." And he peeled his shirt off over his head. "You see, I have my collars made on my shirts," he calmly said, as he sat in his undershirt and enjoyed himself. Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette. A Valuable Tip.

The Sun tell- of a picturesque affair given by a prospect ive debutante to fourteen buds preparing to bloom for the season of '90-'yi. Decora tionsand costumes were eloquent of the glories of fall foliage, and were for the sole delectation of he fair maidens who com prised the whole of the gay company. Ornamenting the center of the highly polished mahogduy table was a white silk square on which a gold spider web had been etched in floss with richly tinted autumn leaVcSj that had the appearance of being carelessly caught in the yellow silk net. A big bowl of Bohemian amber was filled with superb yellow plumes of the full blown golden rod, artistically ar ranged with clusters of flaming maple. The crystal and wines were all yellow and red; the service, curiously enough, was in every varj'ing shade of leaf brown, deco rated by the talented young hostess Tith wild heliotrope, Michaelmas daisies, pods of feathering milk weed and tinted sprays of brier, liny crimson leaves floated in the amber finger bowls that rested on doy lies duplicating the spider web center piece. The menu cards were of scarlet silk, cut and colored to represent a spray of maple. Each leaf was a picture in itself, bearing the name of a single dish, and being at tached to the main branch by realistic stems of rubber it looked as though they had been broken from the tree, and at the covers they accompanied bin corsage bouquets of white lilac Michaelmas daises. Each course was significant of the season, and waa introduced in beds of late field flowers, until ice3 came on to remind the guests of the harvesting time in sheaves and sickles, horns of plenty filled with fruits, clusters of shaded leaves and tiny figurines of the goddess Cere. The hostess was in green and yellow silk, with floral decoration of gol.ien rod.

FINDING F0ETUNE& HOW A REGIMENT WAS DEMORALIZED BY A BIG GOLD MINE. A Famous Episode of the War Related as It Occurred by the Officer In Com mand of the Troop Who Found the Treasure of the Bank of Commerce. "When Gen. Sherman's army wa3 push ing the Confederates westward beyond Raleigh, and not long prior to their sur render," said Gen. Sanderson, "my regi ment, the Tenth Ohio cavalry, being in advance, arrived at the village of Company Shops, on the North Carolina railroad, and camped for the night on the edge of the town. With my staff I took possession of a house as joint tenants with the family, all ladies, who occupied it. Shortly after Maj. Stratton, of my regiment, came in bearing a specie box stamped 'Bank of Commerce of North Carolina,' and said that it, with other boxes containing specie, had been dug up by the regiment. "Officers were at once sent to ascertain the extent of the find. It seemed clear to me that the money belonged either to that bank or to the government, and in no sense to the finders. The discovery of the money Beemed to demoralize the regiment, and every one was using his best endeavors to secure some of the gold and silver. Some of the men were gone for days before they rejoined their companies, and I do not be lieve a hundred men of the regiment slept that night. "The amount of the money was after ward ascertained to be $130,000. It was placed where it was found by officers of the Bank of Commerce, only a short time before we arrived. It had been taken from the vaults of the bank, placed in boxes and conveyed in a box car toward Goldsboro, but fearing that it would fall into the hands of the Union army they stopped the car at Company Shops and the treasure was buried in the ground. DIGGIXG UT A FORTUNE. "The Union soldiers who had marched with Sherman to the sea and back north ward through the Caroliuas had become adepts at discovering any disturbance of the surface of the ground, indicating the burial place of silverware and treasure, which the owners in their hasty flight could not carry along. Sometimes boxes filled with imported china would be found and used by the soldiers to embellish their rude tables on the greensward, and when the order came to march the rare china was thrown against trees and caissons and broken in pieces. Confederates who had money did not deem it safe to carry it on their persons, and would bury it, taking some trusted slave into their confidence, who took pleasure in pointing out the lo cality to the first Union soldier he met. "On the evening when the money was found a member of Company K, before he dismounted from his horse to bivouac, thought he saw evidences of comething having been recently planted, and securing a hatchet ho began digging. Soon he struck a epecie box. Others had gathered around, and when he disclosed the glitter ing ?20 gold pieces there was a lively scramble. To attract them away from him he threw a shower of gold pieces in the air, and while the men were scram bling for them he unearthed two more boxes and ran into the woods to eecrete his valuable find. What followed may ba imagined. GEN. SCHOFIELD'S WRATH. "Every conceivable means was resorted to to hide the gold. The question of trans portation never had been more serious during the whole war than it then was to some of the men who had secured $3,000 to 10,000 each. Many rushed to the sut ler's tent, and though gold was at a heavy premium they traded it for paper money, which they could conveniently carry. Some of the men buried their treasure and after the war returned to Dixie and secured it. "As was expected Gen. Schofield, now commander-in-chief of the army, ordered an investigation, hoping to secure the treasuro and turn it over to the govern ment, and the order was issued to Gen. Kilpatrick, commanding our division. Re alizing tho utter impossibility of ever ob taining any important portion of the treasure then widely scattered, he ap pointed an officer, Capt. L. M. Brink, who was impressed with tho same views. Capt. Brink reported that none of tho money could be recovered oxcept that which had already been placed in the hands of Gen. Kilpatrick. "The report was not satisfactory to Gen. Schofield, and while I was in Raleigh on my way uorth on leave of absence I re ceived an order to report to him and re voking tho leave of absence. I obeyed tho order and presented myself before Gen. Schofield on Sunday. "Tho interview was at first stormy and unpleasant. He declared that no officer or private of the Tenth Ohio cavalry would be permitted to leave North Carolina until every dollar of tho treasuro was turned over. THE INVESTIGATION. "I related tho finding and scattering of the nioncy and said that tho officers and privates who took no part in it should not be held accountable, and that the money was now beyond the reach of those who had first obtained it, most of it having been spent. His reply was that he would disgrace the regiment by taking away it3 colors, sending the men to the Dry Tor tugas and cashier all the officers. I said to him that after he had procured tho col ors there would be no men left to be pun ished or officers to be cashiered, as all would be found dead around the colors. He said that the regiment had a fine rec ord for bravery, and that it3 discipline and fighting qualities were of the highest order, and that they had never failed to re spond when duty called. "After some thought he seemed to real ize the situation and said, 'Will you un dertake to obtain as great a part of the money as possible?' "I answered that I would continue as I bad done in the past. He then issued an order to me, which I still have, to collect the money dug up at the company shops, secure a list of those who had any portion of it, and to report as early as possible, add ing that 1 could have my leave of absence and that the order could be executed by the one in command of my regiment dur ing my absence. Lieut. Col. Piatt, to whom the oroer was turned over, succeed ed in securing 112,000, including that which had been delivered to Gen. Kilpatrick. The remainder went heaven only knows where." Cor. New York World. The Charm of Crime. Three Michigan men, each one of whom could have earned $12 per week at honest labor, went into counterfeiting with a knowledge that they could not make above three or four dollars apiece weekly with the best of luck. No crime has a greater charm than that of counterfeiting. De trait IVc-e Press. A Bachelor's Pretty Custom.

They Cam of a Itemnrkable Family ef Thirty-Ova Children, All Sons. "If it came within the line of his inqui ries," said W. C. Moyer, of St. Claiisville, W. Va., "the census enumerator for Moundsville, near where I live, must have found about as wonderful a domestic his tory as any enumerator ran against else where in this country. I refer to a family by the name of Brandon. The father of that family, Charles Brandon, died when he was 90 years old, but his youngest child was then less than a year old. He died just as the civil war broke out, from a broken heart, his wife having refused to live with him any longer. He had at that time thirty-five living children, and had been married three times. "Hfc: first wife bore him two children. His second wife died after bearing him eighteen. At the age of 73 he married Sarah Barker, she being 10, and the young est of sixteen children. She lived with him twenty-one years, bearing him fifteen children, and then left him, taking her year old baby with her. Brandon was still hale and hearty, but the desertion of his wife broke him down, and he died within a month after she left him. "When his third wife married him the oldest of his twenty children by his two previous wives was 39, and the entire twenty lived under the paternal roof. The young wife reared all of the twenty that were young enough to need rearing, be sides caring for the fifteen of her own, the oldest of whom was but 20 when she left their father. The family of thirty-five kept together for many years after their father's death, and if the patriarchal Bran don had lived a few mouths longer he would have seen seventeen of his sons en list in the Union army. It is a question if in this or any other country an instance can be found where one family ever before contributed seventeen sons to their coun try's service. "These boys all came of good fighting stock, for their father was a famous In dian fighter himself, a veteran of the war of 1S12 and the Mexican war. When west ern Pennsylvania was the frontier, and the Indian fighter was the most important and indispensable person in the settle ments, Charles Brandon, according to all traditions, was one of the best and most daring of all the active foes of the red men. His father was killed by Indians when Charles was only 3 years old. He himself was made a prisoner, ind lived with the Indians twelve years, hating them more the longer he was with them. At the age of 15 he escaped, and after learning his mother tongue, spent all his time, until they were driven away to more remote set tlements, in hunting and killing Indians. "He was 31 years of age when the war of 1S12 broke ont, and ho was one of the first to join the American army, and was in it when peace was declared. He was 74 when he enlisted in the Mexican war. "Tho third wife of this virile old fiqhter is living in Moundsville hale and hearty at the age of 67. She is over six feet high and as straight as an arrow. Of her thirty-five children and stepchildren, she knows posi tively of the whereabouts of but fifteen. Tho rest arc scattered about the country and dead. The tliirty-fivo chPdren were all sons." St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Kotural History NTotes. An Irish naturalist. Rev. S. A. Brenan, records these interesting observations: 1. A hen was seen going down the chimney of a cottage in Arboe parish. The owner was asked how it came to do this, ne said tho house was often locked up when he was at work, and this particular hen discovered this strange way of ingress. 2. A hen sit ting on eggs in an outhouse at Cnshendun, where there was a small hole in the roof just above her nest, moved the nest nnd eggs to oue wde to prevent the rain falling on her. 3. A goo-e made her net and laid on the top of a thatched cottage in Glen duu. She pulled away the thatch off the rigging of the roof, nnd sat there during the time of inenbation.
